"Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me! I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see." Praise God for this beautiful hymn, which was written by John Newton after he thought he was going to lose his life at sea, and he knew that God's amazing grace had saved him! Just as John Newton had a life-changing experience, all of our lives are altered at the altar of God's grace. It is God's amazing grace that steers us through the tempests of life on our way to our heavenly home!
